Opportunities for Adaptive Reuse of Vacant Office Buildings in PDX

This year, the Carbon Leadership Forum Portland Hub and Prosper Portland are collaborating to host this panel discussion on the state of the market for adaptive reuse of vacant office space in Portland. Have you heard Portland has one of the highest delinquency rates for central city office space of large cities across the country? Did you know reuse of existing buildings can result in a 40% to 75% reduction in embodied greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions compared to new construction? Join this session to learn about the analysis and funding opportunities for reuse of existing buildings to save carbon emissions, increase housing units, and even bring innovative businesses into the city. Perspectives include economic development, urban design and preservation, energy efficiency upgrades for commercial construction, and the nuts and bolts of developing, designing, and building housing units in existing buildings.
